Men learned that through patriarchal religion they could increase their social dominance? Or they decided that being the dominant social paradigm made it okay to believe that God looked like them?

Or, to use a quote that has questionable attribution, "God created man in His own image and man, being a gentleman, returned the favor."

Or, if you prefer, Montesquieu (1721) said, "if triangles had a god, they would give him three sides."_________________"Worse comes to worst, my people come first, but my tribe lives on every country on earth. I’ll do anything to protect them from hurt, the human race is what I serve." - Baba Brinkman
